0:00:06 > 0:00:08Hiya, I'm James.

0:00:08 > 0:00:12Tonight's bedtime story is called Wee Granny's Magic Bag

0:00:12 > 0:00:16and it's by Elizabeth McKay and Maria Bogade.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18Are you sitting comfortably?

0:00:18 > 0:00:20Good. Then I'll begin.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Emily and Harry were excited.

0:00:24 > 0:00:27They were waiting for Wee Granny to arrive.

0:00:27 > 0:00:29She was taking them to the park

0:00:29 > 0:00:31while Mum helped get ready for the school fair.

0:00:31 > 0:00:34They loved going places with Wee Granny.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36They hoped she'd bring her tartan bag.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Surprising things always happened

0:00:39 > 0:00:41when Wee Granny brought her bag.

0:00:41 > 0:00:45Last Christmas, Wee Granny and the children went carol singing.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48And when Harry's candle burned right down to a stump,

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Wee Granny reached into her tartan bag

0:00:51 > 0:00:52and pulled out...

0:00:52 > 0:00:55a lamppost to help him see.

0:00:56 > 0:01:00Last summer, Wee Granny took the children to the seaside.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04When they got to the beach, she reached into her tartan bag

0:01:04 > 0:01:07and pulled out three deckchairs.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10Stripy ones for herself and Harry,

0:01:10 > 0:01:11and a pink one for Emily

0:01:11 > 0:01:13because that was her favourite colour.

0:01:13 > 0:01:17"Wee Granny's coming!" Mum called out at last.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20"Hello, my bonnie darlings," Wee Granny said.

0:01:20 > 0:01:25"I've brought sandwiches and orange juice for our picnic in the park."

0:01:25 > 0:01:29"Thank you, Wee Granny," said Emily and Harry.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32"Have a nice time," Mum said as she waved them goodbye.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34"And remember to be good."

0:01:35 > 0:01:38"Would you like to sit down, Wee Granny?" Emily asked

0:01:38 > 0:01:40when they reached the park.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43"On a deckchair, perhaps?"

0:01:44 > 0:01:48"Let's find a picnic bench," replied Wee Granny.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53While Wee Granny was getting the picnic things from her bag,

0:01:53 > 0:01:55the children tried to peek inside,

0:01:55 > 0:01:57but she snapped it shut.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Harry couldn't stand it any longer.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04"Wee Granny," he asked,

0:02:04 > 0:02:08"did you bring anything else in your bag?"

0:02:08 > 0:02:12"I've brought my phone," Wee Granny said.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15"You never know when somebody might call."

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Emily and Harry were disappointed.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22Then, they heard a ringing noise coming from Wee Granny's bag.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Brriiiing! Brriiiing!

0:02:24 > 0:02:26She reached inside and pulled out...

0:02:26 > 0:02:28a bright red

0:02:28 > 0:02:31old-fashioned telephone box.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34"I won't be long, my bonnie darlings," she said,

0:02:34 > 0:02:37stepping inside the box and closing the door.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39The children stared wide-eyed

0:02:39 > 0:02:42as they watched Wee Granny chattering inside.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44"That was your mum.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46"They need more cupcakes for the school fair,

0:02:46 > 0:02:48"so she asked me to make some.

0:02:48 > 0:02:51"Will you help me, my bonnie darlings?"

0:02:51 > 0:02:53"Yes, please," yelled the children.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55They loved baking.

0:02:55 > 0:02:59"I'll need a big mixing bowl," said Wee Granny.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02"I'm sure I've got one in here somewhere."

0:03:02 > 0:03:05She rummaged in her tartan bag and brought out a bowl.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08"And I need kitchen scales,

0:03:08 > 0:03:10"a cupcake tin,

0:03:10 > 0:03:12"flour, butter,

0:03:12 > 0:03:14"sugar and eggs.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17"And, of course, to bake the cakes,

0:03:17 > 0:03:21"I'll need a nice hot oven,"

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Wee Granny said, peering inside her bag.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Harry and Emily looked at each other

0:03:26 > 0:03:28and they shook their heads.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31No-one, not even Wee Granny,

0:03:31 > 0:03:34could carry an oven around in her bag.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36Could she?

0:03:36 > 0:03:38"Be careful, my bonnie darlings,"

0:03:38 > 0:03:42Wee Granny said, placing the oven on the ground.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46"Don't go too close, it's very hot."

0:03:46 > 0:03:50Everyone was busy weighing and measuring and mixing.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54Soon, a warm smell of baking filled the park.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56"Time to do the washing up,"

0:03:56 > 0:04:00Wee Granny said when the children had scraped the baking bowl clean.

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Wee Granny reached into her tartan bag.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06"Oh, deary me," she said.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09"I forgot to bring the kitchen sink.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11"We'll have to wash the dishes in the pond.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13"Quick, my bonnie darlings.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16"People are starting to stare."

0:04:16 > 0:04:20Emily and Harry looked up to see a small crowd gathering around them.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22By the time they'd finished washing up,

0:04:22 > 0:04:24the cupcakes were ready.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27They placed them carefully inside some boxes.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30You can probably guess where they got the boxes.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35"Uh-oh." said Harry, "I can see a policeman coming."

0:04:35 > 0:04:38"Hurry, children," said Wee Granny,

0:04:38 > 0:04:40"let's clear everything away."

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Wee Granny opened up her bag, and in went...

0:04:43 > 0:04:45the eggs, the sugar,

0:04:45 > 0:04:47the butter, the flour,

0:04:47 > 0:04:49the cake tin, the kitchen scales

0:04:49 > 0:04:51and the mixing bowl.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54"Wow," whispered Harry and Emily

0:04:54 > 0:04:55as they watched Wee Granny

0:04:55 > 0:04:57squee-eeze

0:04:57 > 0:05:01the enormous oven into her tartan bag.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Then, Wee Granny closed her bag,

0:05:05 > 0:05:06put it under her arm,

0:05:06 > 0:05:08and took the children to the school

0:05:08 > 0:05:11to meet their mum and Mrs Graham, their teacher.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15"Thank you, Wee Granny," said Mrs Graham.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18"Now we've got lots of cakes to sell on Saturday."

0:05:18 > 0:05:21And she gave the children a cupcake each for helping.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25"Don't eat them until you've had your supper," said Mum.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28"Can we put them in your bag, Wee Granny?" asked Harry.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31"Of course," said Wee Granny.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34"I don't have much in it today."

0:05:34 > 0:05:35"What about...?"

0:05:35 > 0:05:39"Sh-sh-sh, Emily," said Wee Granny.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42"It's time to go home."

0:05:42 > 0:05:44"Are you coming to the school fair on Saturday?"

0:05:44 > 0:05:46asked Emily on the way home.

0:05:46 > 0:05:48"Of course, my bonnie darling,"

0:05:48 > 0:05:52said Wee Granny. "I'm going with Bert."

0:05:52 > 0:05:54"Who's Bert?" asked Harry.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57"Bert is my friend," said Wee Granny.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59"Would you like to meet him?"

0:05:59 > 0:06:01The children nodded.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04Wee Granny reached into her tartan bag, and pulled out...

0:06:04 > 0:06:05"Eee-yaaaw!

0:06:06 > 0:06:10"Eee-yaaaw!"

0:06:10 > 0:06:13"Bert and I are in charge of the donkey rides."

0:06:13 > 0:06:15"Wow!" said Emily.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18"Wee Granny," said Harry,

0:06:18 > 0:06:20"is your bag magic?"

0:06:20 > 0:06:23"Of course not," said Wee Granny with a wink.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26"I just like to be prepared."

0:06:27 > 0:06:29That story was called Wee Granny's Magic Bag.

0:06:31 > 0:06:32It's bedtime now,

0:06:32 > 0:06:35so off you go to get snuggled up for the night.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38Maybe you'll have a magical dream tonight.

0:06:38 > 0:06:39I do hope so.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43I'll be back again very soon with another bedtime story.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Good night.
